John Ford: Dreaming the Quiet Man
The documentary 'Dreaming the Quiet Man' has interviews with Ford devotees such as Martin Scorsese, Peter Bogdanovicz, Jim Sheridan, William Dowling, and Joe McBride. There is a mesmerizing collection and rare images documenting the film's production. The documentary's primary setting is Ford's ancestral homeland of Connemara, on Ireland's west coast, where his parents were born. We meet Ford's cousins, the Feeneys, who tell us about Ford's parents' departure from Ireland following the Great Famine and the young Ford's return to Ireland in 1922 to visit his cousins, the Thorntons, and witness their house being burned down by the infamous Black and Tans. Ford donated money to the IRA while posing as a location scout for a film. We fly to Portland, Maine, where Ford was raised and later became a director during the Golden Age of Hollywood. The youngster did well, but Ireland was constantly on his mind.
